Network cable ShiverPeaks 75511-SL0.25G CAT7 U/FTP flat with RJ45 connector, 0.25G rating

Flat CAT7 network cable ShiverPeaks 75511-SL0.25G with U/FTP shielding and RJ45 connector is a slim, low-profile Ethernet cable designed for wired LAN installations where space is limited. It complies with CAT7 structural characteristics while being specified for reliable data transfer up to 0.25 Gbps. The flat profile and flexible jacket allow routing under carpets, along skirting boards, and through narrow gaps without creating noticeable bulges.

Advantages

The U/FTP construction provides a foil shield around each twisted pair plus an overall jacket shield, reducing electromagnetic interference and cross-talk in environments with nearby power lines or electronic equipment. The flat design minimizes cable height, enabling unobtrusive installation in domestic and small office environments. Pre-fitted RJ45 connectors make the cable ready for immediate use with standard Ethernet ports and reduce installation time.

Suitable for

• Wired home networking where cables run under carpets or along walls
• Small office workstations requiring discreet cable routing
• Connecting computers, switches, routers, or media players supporting up to 0.25 Gbps
• Temporary or semi-permanent installations in tight or shallow cable channels

Key specifications

• Category: CAT7-class cable designed for shielded twisted pair transmission
• Shielding: U/FTP — individual foil shielding for each pair with overall shielding
• Connector: Standard RJ45 plug on both ends for compatibility with Ethernet ports
• Rated throughput: up to 0.25 Gbps (250 Mbps)
• Profile: Flat, low-profile jacket for thin-space routing
• Typical applications: LAN patching, workstation connections, media streaming within rated speed

How to use

Plug the RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and into the corresponding port on the router, switch, or modem. Route the flat cable along the edge of the room, under carpets, or through narrow channels, making gentle bends—avoid sharp kinks which could damage the internal pairs or shielding. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the connector latch clicks to establish a secure physical connection. For best results, verify network settings on connected devices and perform a speed test to confirm expected throughput.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable in parallel and close proximity to AC power cords or heavy electrical equipment. When routing under carpets, place the cable in low-traffic areas or use protective cable concealers to reduce mechanical wear. If longer runs or higher-than-rated speeds are required, select a cable with a higher certified throughput and appropriate shielding level.
